Aitech Introduces Rugged AI Boards for Defense Systems

September 09, 2026
Aitech introduced the C530 and U-C5300 rugged AI GPGPU boards for defense and aerospace systems, offering up to 35.8 TFLOPS of FP32 performance.

Aitech announced in a press release the C530 and U-C5300 rugged AI GPGPU boards for defense and aerospace systems. Both use the 3U VPX format, while the U-C5300 follows SOSA requirements for open architecture defense programs.

Each board offers up to 9,728 CUDA cores, 304 Tensor Cores, 76 ray tracing cores, 35.8 TFLOPS of FP32 compute performance, and 576 GB per second of memory bandwidth. They support PCIe Gen4, CUDA tools, OpenVPX architectures, and Windows and Linux operating systems.

Target uses include AI inference, video analytics, image processing, object detection, sensor fusion, autonomous navigation, radar processing, electronic warfare, and unmanned aircraft systems. Both boards are available for mission development.

Whitepaper

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
